Belleville, Sept. 24.--That poison | exists in the waters of Fraser Lake, North Hastings, has just been de- monstrated. Veterinary surgeon H. Wellbanks, of this city, in company with provincial officers, visited the lake on Saturday. A calf was pur- chased and was given some of the water.

The poisoned water ap- pears to be on the outer edge, where cattle went to drink. The legs of the dead animals were covered with a greenish colored slime, they hav- ing stood in shallow water near the shore. Samples of the water have been sent to Toronto for analysis.

Schook, of Toronto, preferred his oysters fried rather than raw it cost him $300 last night. While eating oysters at a loosl cafe last might, several beautiful pearls rolled into his mouth. Mr. Shook thought for a while that fortune was smiling upon him, bul disappointment awaited him. On finishing his dinner he took the pearis to a local jeweler, to dis cover their value. J The jeweler declared that, while they were real pearls of excellent quality, they had lost aM value be- & cause they had been subjected 10 heat. If they had not been sub- jected to the frying pan they would have beent worth at least $300. There was one pearl that stood out above the rest. It was the size of a pea and was perfectly shaped. There were smailer ones that were well matched, and these, the jeweler said, could have been made into 8 beautiful ring. Col.
